Estimate/calculate mass, area and quantify dimensions

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to estimate and calculate mass, area and quantify dimensions of loads in accordance with workplace requirements and relevant regulations, as part of work functions within the transport and logistics industry.

It includes estimating loads to be transported or placed in storage, estimating load limits of transport and/or storage systems, and organising a load.

Work is performed under some supervision generally within a team environment.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)



Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1

Estimate loads for transport or storage

1.1

Order forms/work orders are read and requirements are noted

1.2

Shape, balance characteristics, dimensions and mass of load/s are identified

1.3

Area/volume required for storage is estimated

1.4

Weights and volumes are totalled to calculate load requirements of transport or storage system

2

Estimate load limits of transport and/or storage

2.1

Allowable load limits for storage and/or transport systems are identified in accordance with workplace procedures

2.2

Capacity of transport and storage systems in terms of mass, area and volume is calculated

3

Organise load

3.1

Load/s is restricted to allowable range

3.2

Load/s is spread to ensure safe weighting on pallets, trucks, platforms or other storage or transport systems

3.3

Appropriate workplace documentation is completed


Submission Requirements

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Non-essential conditions can be found in the Companion Volume Implementation Guide.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
